Lorinser has introduced a new design of alloy wheel for the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. 

The three-part forged alloy wheel, known as the Lorinser RSK8, is a seven-spoke design.  As the SLS uses different sized wheels front and rear the RSK8 comes in 9.5 x 20-inch and 11 x 21-inch sizes.

The manufacturer describes the wheel as 'one of the absolute light-weight' models on the market.  Lighter wheels mean lower unsprung weight, which improves handling, ride comfort and braking response.  Recommended tyre sizes for the wheels are 275/30 ZR20 and 295/25 ZR21.

Lorinser has 35 years experience in producing accessories for Mercedes-Benz cars with parts available for most recent models.
